We’re having a cold June here in the Bay Area. (No doubt due to Gorebull Warming).

But now goofball liberals have decided that the absolutely correct temperature that the earth should maintain eternally was whatever temperature it was the day before the industrial revolution kicked in.
The ‘doting court eunuchs’ of the MSM fail to notice these so-called scientists suck at the teet of government funding... they have a dog in the fight...
The court eunuchs of the MSM fail to notice that the hype about how bad it was going to be BY NOW have all proved wrong.
The doting court eunuchs of the MSM get their marching orders from dems who feed them tips... Tips that ‘help’ democrats - and somehow, they fail to notice that too...
These fools are obviously not scientists, and they do not base their crude political-social lusts on reality, but fantasy.
For example, there has been a dramatic, near worldwide reduction in the rate of population growth, to the point where the Earth’s human population is approaching stability. However, such stability never lasts, except to indicate the midpoint of increase or decrease.
That is, soon the world’s population may very well begin to shrink, *on its own*.
After WWII, one man, Norman Borlaug, was to a great extent responsible for the massive increase in the rate of growth of the human population, with his “Green Revolution” in agriculture. He is the equivalent of a “father of billions”, and he also prevented tremendous suffering around the world by ending most starvation, except that caused intentionally by evil local leaders.
But this also meant a gigantic baby boom. Which after this demographic bulge, population growth returned to a far more stable, if still strongly increasing, rate.
Yet this baby boom is now rapidly aging, and soon there will be a huge jump in the number of natural deaths of baby boomers, which will do much to force the population growth rate into negative territory.
That is, the Earth could lose a billion or more of its total number of people solely by attrition.
“He showed detailed graphic displays that demonstrate how global temperatures have increased 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit since the 1970s”
And as has been shown multiple times here on FR and other sites, the data used to reach this conclusion was faulty, if not outright fraudulent.
So, of course, if one uses faulty data as the baseline, any projections based on extrapolating said data will necessarily be faulty.
Unless a verifiable methodology is developed to determine the actual temperature change(s), over a significant period of time, any assertions made as to global climate change fall into the categories of guesswork and sloppy speculation.
And even if it can be shown that temperatures are rising, this doesn’t even get to the matter of what might be causing any fluctuations in temperature. That’s another ball of wax altogether.
And yet, we find ourselves in an environment of acute sensitivity to anything that might remotely enlarge our “carbon footprint”.
Amazing thing to behold.
